About year ago working jeweller
of Paris married laundress, a very
handsome woman, who gave herself
out as widow with q family Of Il rec
children. While the happy pair were
still in the honeymoon the husband as-
certained that his wife was carrying on
a Irritation with an elderly and wealthy
individual. and he arrived at the con-
viction that they had been for some
time on very intimate terms. The
working jewellers first impulse was TO
kill the woman, but he soon determine
ed on treating the difficulty In a more
philosophical spirit, and as he found it
hard TO maintain his wife and her three
children he went to her lover and pro-
posed that he should then and there
take the family of his hands. The
other agreed, aud n contract was made
to the effect that the working jeweler
abandoned his wife to his rival as well
as her three children, Oh condition that
he should render her life happy anil
bring up the little ones well and hon-
estly. A proviso was added that is
these conditions were not adhered to
the agreement should be null and void.
Oddly enough this contract was actuaE
ly attested by the mayor In the depaH-
ment of the Orne. Lately, however,
the working jewellsr learned thatthe
bargain had not turned out well either
for his wife or her children. The won1-
an was continually beaten by her pro-
tector, and the little ones were utterly
neglected. The husband at snce re-
turned to Paris, where the party were
living, aud went 10 a police magistrate
and, after explaining the case. implor-
ed him to intervene and insist on the
bond being duly adhered to by his rival.
Greatiy to his surprise and delight he
was informed that thefoontract was
worthless and that hecould take his
wife and her children home with him
without a moments delay. Tie work

this advice.
